Beijing's Twin Town Status

Andrew Boff: In light of the actions of the Chinese Communist Party’s refusal to accept an international investigation into the Pandemic, is it time to end Beijing’s twin town status with London?

The Mayor: My number one priority has been safeguarding Londoners’ lives and navigating our way through this crisis. The global coronavirus pandemic is a monumental challenge that transcends continental, state and city boundaries, so we of course need to understand how the virus spread from Wuhan, and whether the relevant authorities shared information with the international community as quickly and fully as they should have. I understand the Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) is leading on this issue.
